  • Have I got a lemon???

    DS3 1.6D Sport.

    I got this car from main dealer 8 months ago. 3500K on clock

    To date, it has had a major wiring loom replaced, then an injector went, when I was in the outside lane of the M5 fairly shifting.

    Now, after my wife started moaning about a knocking sound when reversing with full lock on, (its her car) it sounds like a driveshaft, but as yet to be confirmed by main dealer. Need to phone them and book it in AGAIN!!!

    Anyway, that 3 fairly major faults in a car that only has 15k on the clock now, and in less than 8 months.

    We are beginning to think we are jinxed with bloody cars................especially French cars, as we had a Pug 207GT before this, and that turned out to be a pile of Poo, and cost us an arm & leg in repairs (Out of warranty)

    Whinge over, sorry :mad:

      I said goodbye to my DS3 1.6DSport after two and a bit years with 37,000 on the clock and apart from interior creaks, vibrations and bonks I never had a days trouble with its running. Coming from a Avensis which I treated badly from 38,000 to 105,000 miles with only one DIY service I was a bit scared getting a French car but luckily I think mine was made on day when the workers in the fatroy were in a good mood and working hard!!
